Familiar wars

A light in the darkness

I have never considered myself to be normal, but I also never thought I was that strange, I had an average life as a kid, as a preteen things had gotten different, I became a nobody and found myself hiding in the back of the class where I didn't have to talk to people, and then high school came around and the only friends I made were in my art class, but that's all, so yeah, a nobody, but then again no one would miss me if I was gone. These thoughts are very bad for somone to think, I know that, but I couldn't help but think how little I've done with my life as my last moments of it are aproching, my dad didn't see the semi truck, and my mom didn't notice it to stop him. I ha been half asleep when it happened, but as I woke up to a scream I looked up from where my head rested on the door and saw two headlights slam quickly into the car, no those weren't the moments that I thought about my life during, it was as our car tumbled down a cliff, in those moments of weightlessness and spinning, I felt fear and sadness, I couldn't speak to tell my parents I loved them, I couldn't scream to get help, I could only sink back to my mind to be invisible to my surroundings, as I always have.

I didn't feel pain, I thought I would be hurting, but as I open my eyes, I wasn't realy sure what was going on.
I find my surroundings were a forest, I was laying on the ground, I looked around to find no car or cliff, I didn't have a single scratch on me. I got up and looked around, I didn't see a single person anywhere, but I knew I wasn't alone, though I didn't like the idea of what was there with me. I tried walking to find somone or atleast a way out of the forest but no luck, it was starting to get dark and I had no clue were I was or what to do, I may have survived the car crash, but will I survive the night.

Somthing was different, I was sitting scared in the dark in the woods but didn't feel lost, I stood back up and could feel somthing, somthing that seemed to me like I was ment to be there. Yeah I know how I sound, like a crazy person who just lost his last bit of sanity and is in the woods at night, but if I had thought this any time before I would have agreed with you, but this wasn't just a stray thought or my imagination, this was somthing calling out to me. I started to walk in the direction of it, first feeling confused and thinking I was wandering aimlessly, but then with purpose, I knew this was what was supposed to happen, so I had to.

I had walked for what felt like hours, and the last bit of light given by the moon was now being blocked out by clouds as what was obviously a storm was going to start. Lightning cracked across the sky and thunder roared through the trees, but I was almost hypnotized by this feeling as kept walking, it had even began to rain but I didn't stop I was close I knew it. I got through a thick brush and found what I was looking for, a door, and yes it was just randomly sitting in the woods, no I don't know why, so stop thinking it. It was a door, silver and solid as stone, it was marked with the symbol of a tree, and had no handle simple five key holes. I felt discouraged to find it lock but then I stopped to think, if I was ment to find this then there should be a key, that's when I felt somthing hit my hand, I looked down to find a silver key, it was oldfashioned and made of the same thing as the door, but it didn't look like it fit in any of the spots on the door, I was going to give up hope when a light hit the door, I looked back to find the clouds had a hole allowing moon light in and it was lighting up the door, the silver shined as symbols began to light up on the door, each one revealing a keyhole, but I had no clue wich one I was supposed to use, so I did the only thing I could and made an educated guess, and by that I mean I played enny meany miney moe, and put the key in the one it landed on. The key faded into the door as the glow of the symbol completely enveloped it, It didn't open but seemed to become shifty as if water, I reached my hand forward into it, it felt warm, I took a deep breath just in case and stepped through. I'm glad I took a breath because I emerged in under water, I started paddling near the surface, somthing brushed against me and in a moment of panic I cough some of my air out, now I'm basicly scared to death and paddling like crazy to the surface, an I never felt more relieved then when I broke the top of the water and inhaled the air, I rub my eyes to get the water out of them and look up, I think I was in a mix of complete amazement and possible heart attack.
